    The important part is to increase awareness that Autism is a disability and to ask for tolerance.

    Or, you know, I can demand the reasonable accommodations that are my human right.

      It seemed like that commenter was saying “ask for tolerance for disproportionate outbursts.” It seems like you’re saying others accommodating your meltdowns is a human right. Is that what you’re saying?

        No, don’t be silly. But an environment where I can do my job without exceeding my sensory tolerance certainly is my human right. If it can be attained with reasonable accommodations.

        That’s not my opinion. That’s the law in most of the developed world.
